Anyone have anything that helped them with severe cracked nipples ? I’ve been using lanolin . I troed coconut oil. I know my sons latch isn’t correct . I’ve tried every position . Everything and I cang get him to get a deep latch. But I’m in so much pain. Please help
I didnt know they made a cream for that! Thank you!
@briannalynn547 you're welcome. I hope you get the chance to try it, and I hope it works for you
Coconut oil was the only thing that helped my nips. Also heard soaking them in salt water helps them heal faster.
Have you had him checked for ties or anything that would prevent him from taking a deep latch?
@briannalynn547, that’s good then at least. Hopefully time and practice will help. And healing for you too!
Polysporin complete.. wipe it off your nipples with a baby wipe before feeding baby
@briannalynn547, your welcome it helps with the pain and the healing a lactation consultant recommended it to me over 13 years ago when I had my first and I’ve successfully breastfed all 4 of my babies and used it everytime! Even when baby is latched correctly your nipples will still hurt until they heal hang in there!
Have you had him evaluated for a tongue tie? Is that what they’re called?
Our local hospital has lactation consultants. You should see if you have that at your hospital. They will watch and help!
I’ve met with her a few times and called her a hand full of times back and forth and she hasn’t been much help. Just keeps telling me the same things and it’s not working for my situation
@briannalynn547, ah, darn! That stinks! They were very helpful to me and kept me going!
@justgotaname, ugh I know she seems like the sweetest lady but her tips are not very helpful lol
I’ve been trying but they’re so frustrating to keep on for both of us and he gets super frustrated. I’m able to use it like 50% of the time
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
TWW!!
2dpo and on the tww journey. Anyone on the same dpo or close? Haven't decided if I will test at 12dpo or just wait and see if she shows up!!

Short Luteal Phase?
I've just started temping because I believe that the reason I haven't had a BFP yet, after 20 months, is because I believe I may have a Luteal Phase Defect.
I've used palmer's cocoa butter nursing cream, or nursing butter, can't remember exactly what it's called. It worked so good for me
